Assignment 03

This document contains 9 questions related to microwave engineering concepts such as resonant frequency of a cavity, cut-off wavelength and characteristic impedance of a rectangular waveguide, attenuation constant and phase velocity in a waveguide, wave impedance of an X-band waveguide, design of a rectangular waveguide with a dielectric filling, and power calculations for directional couplers based on coupling factor, directivity, and insertion loss. The questions involve calculating parameters for rectangular and dielectric filled waveguides operating in various modes at different frequencies, as well as determining power levels at the output of a directional coupler given its specifications and the input power.
